The 2 cm FlaK 38 was developed from the earlier FlaK 30 anti-aircraft gun as a result of German experience in the Polish Campaign, where its rate of fire was seen as inadequate. The increased rate of fire made the FlaK 38 more effective against low-flying targets that could only be engaged for a brief moment. It was ideal for the Fallschirmjager as the weapon could be set up quickly, taking only seconds to pull the locking pin and let the gun platform slide onto the ground. The Flak 38 began replacing the Flak 30 in the field in 1940, and was still robust enough to be found in action in great numbers at the end of the war.
